I can't agree. I think the problems lie with: 0) universities that teach an excess of oft irrelevant minutia via regurgitation -- and not the mastery of essentials followed by forays into lessons of experimentation and invention, 1) corporate HR departments that have no idea if they are failing and don't care, 2) employers that believe matching on an alphabet soup of low level S/W skills are the only way to attract and select the best people. As long as a keen inventive mind is not the principal measure of a job candidate, corporate America will continue to minimize risk rather than maximize potential, eventually populating itself only with robots, be they wetware or software. And universities will continue blithely down their current path to foster ever more sterile minds.
